exercise 6.1

It asks for new Body ( , inrsize , double mass , Vector movement ) Color color And no matter what I put in it has an error

I know that for the color, you need to use 'java.awt.Color.COLOR_NAME' or 'new java.awt.Color(int, int, int)'. You will probably also need to use 'new Vector(int, int)' or something like that.

That depends on exactly how you are typing them in!

I have the same issue, example for a new body(123 #int size 666 #double mass (2, 3.0 ) # Vector Movement (255,120,120) # Color, but with for instancea color like blue doesn't work

Ok, I see what is going on; but, trying to explain it might prove difficult. The color part is easy -- for blue, use 'java.awt.Color.blue' -- for a new color, use 'new java.awt.Color(255, 120, 120)' The window is not part of your program, in itself, and it does not have the packages accessible to it. Therefore, you must specify them (as with the color example above). If there are other input fields you are having trouble with, post what is expected with what you are trying and I will try to help.

Thanks danpost. I seem to be left with a problem on the Vector movement. My input is now new body(123 #int size 666 #double mass (2.2, 3.1 ) # Vector Movement new java.awt.Color.blue and I get the message: Error:')' expected As the Vector is the only input with ( or ), it must be this, or am I wrong?

You will probably need to use 'new java.util.Vector(2.2, 3.1)' (if you are using the java.util.Vector class); or, 'new Vector(2.2, 3.1)' if you are using your own Vector class.
